Makers of ORSL expand their Ready-to-Drink (RTD) rehydration portfolio with the launch of the ORS – W.H.O approved formula targeted for patients with diarrhoea-led dehydration
Kenvue, the world’s largest pure-play consumer health company by revenue and the makers of ORSL (औरसल) electrolyte drinks launched WHO ORS, in ready-to-drink (RTD) format for patients with diarrhoea-led dehydration.

Building on this legacy, makers of ORSL expand their Ready-to-Drink (RTD) rehydration portfolio with the launch of the ORS – W.H.O approved formula targeted for patients with diarrhoea-led dehydration.
